Daemonorops

Daemonorops was a genus of rattan palms in the family Arecaceae. Its species are now included within the genus Calamus.

Species found primarily in the tropics and subtropics of southeastern Asia with a few species extending into southern China and the Himalayas.

Daemonorops species are dioecious, with male and female flowers on separate individuals.

Polysaccharides found in some Daemonorops species are known for their medicinal anticoagulant properties.

Dragon's blood, a red resin used traditionally in medicine, varnish, and dyes, may be obtained from the fruit of Daemonorops species.
